[Laago]

Hi Guys

I recently got my first job to level 90, DNC

But now I am confused as to what I should be doing next...

Is there somesort of level 90 checklist I should be looking at?

What do people normally do?

Merits, look at improving your gear, get some more experience with the job (if you need it adn want to solo), AF3, accessories etc etc

1) Get all your Abyssites. The important ones anyway. You should focus on:
*All 3 Lunar Abyssites
*All "Furtherance" and "Merit" Abyssites.
*all "Celerity" Abyssites (3 total IIRC)

2) Get all the good Atmas. They are:
*Razed Ruins
*Apocalypse (This one is going to take a while)
*Gnarled Horn
*Ultimate
*Minikin Monstrosity
*Voracious Violet
*Sanguine Scythe
*Beyond
.... theres more i Can't think of.

3) Work on your Empyrean +1/+2 Armor, Its good stuff, Gear yourself up. This is obvious :P

4) ???

This list is pretty good, but don't get confused, +2 Empyrean isn't the end all gear in every slot (Although it usually is in most slots).

Rule of Thumb: 26% Haste in gear (Which is true cap) > ALL.

Also create seperate TP, Evasion, and WS sets, and probably a Waltz set (end game gear would consist of af1+1 body, af2+1 hat, Roundel Earring and Phurba).

Also, I think 4 would be Twashtar, as it's DNC's highest DPS dagger.

Thats what i meant by "Gear yourself up" too > ___>

I have a nasty habit of assuming a certain level of intelligence from people >.O so i rarely spell it out to such an extreme XD

But rest assured, I meant Work on +2 armor, and other stuff (which i wrote by "Gear yourself up")

Promise

Not doubting you, just adding on to your suggestions which are already great.

I've seen too many people in full af3 when dusk gloves/feet are so readily available nowadays.

missions, quests, BCNMs, there's a million things to do, in no particular order.

[Tamoa]

Get the best gear and weapons for your dnc, help friends get items they want, go try soloing some relatively hard NMs both inside and outside of Abyssea, level at least 1 more job for versatility to better help friends, level crafts (synergy), complete quests and missions (I soloed windy missions 1-10 and had fun doing that), skill up all weapons that dnc can use, see if you can find some people that are interested in lowman limbus and dynamis, VWNM etc etc etc.
